[VOX] You have already lived through hell...
Dr. Badd
How’s Unity working for you? How about your forum usage? IRC friendly to you?
You like what you see? Manipulation - Corruption - Trolling
Now, not every outlet is the same and not everyone is bad. Some are quite fun. Others are plainly just info and discussion areas. Hell, there are even some that have games and entertainment (game nights or hot chicks anyone?). The question is not what is being done, but HOW it is being done.
Using these “ideas” to guide actions in a game from the OUTSIDE of the game is all fine and good. That is....if you can trust these portals. You have to trust what is on them, who is running them, and if the results are “fair.”
Fair. Fair to whom? Fair to your right to vote? Fair to your right as an individual? Fair to your right to play this game the way YOU want to? Don’t worry, if it’s important, you will be sure that you will be being “watched” or manipulated to make sure that the end result is what is “needed.” Even the most loyal Americans are duped into helping.
Needed for America. Needed for what’s right. Needed to further someone’s ambitions. Whichever “need” is right to use, at the right moment.
We have tried this, and not everyone has been excited with the results. There is another idea....
This game is a game. It’s at Erepublik.com. It is NOT on yourpartyforum.com, usaforums.com, governmentisrunhere.com, or IRC chat.
Mechanics rule the game. Twist it how you want, but even the FEDS, Fluffers, Elitists, Non-elitists, etc. that want to do ANYTHING in this game, will need the mechanics to work.
No matter how much everyone wants the game to be changed by them, NOTHING outside of the game affects the mechanics of the game. You can’t vote from your forum. You can’t win elections from IRC. You can’t win a CP election by being a part of an Unity group.
The only way that ANY of these work, is if the people in game agree to these stipulations. Agree to vote a certain way IN GAME. To agree to help one another IN GAME.
There is, however, a group of people that are agreeing to disagree with this process. Disagree with how we have been manipulated. Disagree with having to sign up for forums and chat to people on IRC unless we want to. This group wants to play the game.....IN THE GAME.
We are Vox Populi.
We are the Voice of the People.
We are the party that let’s the mechanics and IN GAME facilities point us in a direction.
You want to have un-manipulated results of what your party REALLY feels like?
You want to have the right to speak your voice in a public place for all to see with no hidden discussions?
You want to know what is happening with your party without having to sign in to other outlets other than the game you play?
Join us, and see what the game is when everything is out in the open...'

Frak the metagame!
It sounds like you and Dylan Thomas have pretty much the same message. One of you should agree to back the other next month if you truly want to be a viable 6th party candidate. With the AFA/AMP numbers surging to almost 40% now that RGR isn't running for CP and hobbling them, even 200 votes is going to make a difference next month or the month after.
Alternatively, you might want to join USWP. It is currently functioning much as you want a party to function, with almost everything done in game, no roleplaying, and no attempt to evade game mechanics.
If you want to see what a major political party is like with 95% of its members strictly playing in-game, two-clicking and fighting, then USWP is the party for you!
Proud to be USWP!
This is why you lose.
